Meet Karina

Healing is possible. Let's start where you are.

Hi, I’m Karina—Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in New York, offering therapy for individuals who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or caught in painful relationship patterns they can’t seem to break.

You might be here because you’ve noticed yourself repeating the same mistakes, dating the same types of people, or struggling to set boundaries that honor your needs. Maybe you feel like you’ve lost touch with who you are—or who you want to be. If that sounds familiar, you’re not alone, and I’m here to help.

As a first-generation immigrant, I deeply understand the challenges of navigating multiple cultural worlds, balancing personal and family expectations, and finding your place in a world that feels demanding. I specialize in working with individuals facing anxiety, depression, complex trauma, life transitions, relationship difficulties, and those recovering from narcissistic abuse.

My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and grounded in psychodynamic therapy and EMDR. I’ll help you uncover the deeper roots of your patterns while also giving you practical tools to feel more in control of your emotions and your choices.I strive to create a space where you can express yourself openly, feel deeply understood, and begin to explore the changes you’re seeking—whether that’s profound transformation or simply finding a place where you feel heard and seen.

I understand that for some, meaningful change can feel overwhelming or uncertain, and that’s perfectly okay. Whether you’re ready for significant shifts or just looking to take the first step toward feeling more centered, we’ll move at a pace that works for you and navigate the process together.
